Murphys, CA…Brandi Clark, 42, passed away on July 23, 2016 in Las Vegas while doing exactly what she wanted: spending time with her children. She was born in Alaska and spent some of her childhood in Georgia. She moved to Sonora, CA at age 15 and graduated from Sonora High School in 1992. Brandi was very community oriented, volunteering for Sober Grad for 5 years, raising funds for Harmony Ranch, participating in Relay for Life, volunteering at the See’s candy booth to raise money for her son’s track team and fostering kittens. She also lived for her kids and coached their soccer teams and was a Girl Scout leader. At the time of her death, she was set to welcome a foreign exchange student into her home.
Brandi truly understand that everyday was a gift, having received a heart transplant in 2013. She did everything she could in the time she had……horseback riding in the beach, the Dell Osso mud run, Bay to Breakers & the Insane Inflatable 5K. She had a blast scaring people as a zombie on a 5K course too! She loved horror movies, roller coasters, Bunko, Halloween, Christmas and most of all….BLING!
Brandi is survived by her daughter, Jara Clark, son, Max Clark and am army of friends who will miss her big heart and love of life. Her celebration of life will be held on Saturday, August 13th at 6pm at The Pickle Patch in San Andreas.
